Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) is set to introduce wheeling tariffs next year on electricity transported through part of its network, mainly via interconnections with neighbouring countries.

“Ketraco will soon start earning money through wheeling charges, especially on interconnectors, which is set to strengthen our operations,” Mr.  Fernandes Barasa, Managing Director of Ketraco told African Energy recentlty.

The new income comes as Ketraco positions itself to take over the system operator role from Kenya Power.
